Been looking to buy one and I may have found a deal but not sure if the quality is good.

 

It's a Freestyle stand up and is brand new. Someone is trying to off load it.

 

Anybody have any exp with Freestyle SUP at all?

 

Go for it if the price is reasonable..........don't like it, sell it.

I assume your talking about the brand lifetime and the model freestyle. .if not then this has no point lol. Im not familiar with freestyle if its a brand.

Anyways the freestyle (lifetime products in general) sup isn't a bad but its not great either but they are a good bang for the buck.

Lifetime products are sporting items that big box stores carry if that makes sense

For a beginner its a good one to start with and use for a while and see if your really into it. If so, it will be good for a while but you would probably want to upgrade in 2 years or so for something better. Something that is lighter and tracks better. However if you used it under 5 times a year it should last a longtime.

They have retailed for 400 but I wouldn't pay over 300 for it

Paddle boards are essentially everywhere now.  It's OK to go with mass-manufactured brands for sake of price and learning.  You will probably want to upgrade after a season of learning and practicing anyway, and it will last longer than that.  I would say go for it everything else being equal.  If you get really interested, there are local surf shops on the coast that make their own boards, and they are starting to make stand-up paddle boards.  Check in those areas for custom, "local" supply.
